Pier Protection Sample Clauses

Pier Protection. The pier protection wall shall be designed to resist the impact and redirect equipment in case of derailment. Both sides of the pier shall be protected in locations where tracks are within 25 feet on both sides of the pier. If seismic criteria are considered, pier design may require column isolation with the wall supported on an independent footing. All replacement or modified structures shall comply with AREMA requirements for pier protection walls. In locations where pier columns and protection walls interfere with drainage, an alternative drainage facility shall be provided to collect and carry water to a drainage system. AREMA defines a pier of heavy construction as: “Cross-sectional area equal to or greater than that required for the pier protection wall and the larger of its dimensions is parallel to the track”. For a single column the minimum cross- sectional area is 30 sq. ft. (12’ length x 2.5’ width = 30 sq. ft.). Columns with 30 square feet of cross sectional area must have the larger dimension parallel to the track; for example, a 5’ x 6’ column with the 6’ dimension parallel to the track is considered as heavy construction. The Pier Protection detail shall be in accordance with Plan No. 711100, sheet 6.
